Kaelen Ohm is a Canadian born singer, singwriter, filmaker and actor. She has had her finger in many pies, staring in the Isreali TV- Series "Hit and Run" and several other films "Taken" etc, she has made an outstanding career in music.
I found AMAARA to be one of those trance inducing acts, that once you push play, you just let the music take you on an adventure. The most recent album "Child Of Venus" was inspired by an experience where Kalen Ohm was getting her Vedic Chart read to her, in which she was told she was "A child of Venus". That idea was reflected in the album of self discovery, and finding what it means to be "human" under so many different terms of understanding.
There is so much to unpack in the music which will take you through London Grammar to Fleetwood Mac and some M83 in the Twin Peaks Universe, yeah it's that good.
We talked about her new album from her home on Nova Scotia, and covered the subjects of the songs, the songwriting, and how each experience is unique as a human being, and that norms are not really always the best thing for people.
